Tales from childhood: Blind love.

Good day to everyone reading these lines! It's me again, Timothy. I want to share with you one of the women I've loved.

I was still unattractive back then, and my ex-wife had already kicked me out. I had to live wherever I pleased. It was a difficult time. But that's when I met this beautiful and kind girl.

It happened in the center of a city. Everyone there was in a hurry.

"Hello, beauty!" I told her.

"Hi, young man!" the girl said without looking at me.

At that moment I realized that my new friend was blind. Yes, it was she who saw nothing and this beautiful girl didn't care how I looked.

I started talking to her more often, and that's how our friendship began. Back then, I felt free to walk around in front of my friend, doing whatever I wanted. It gave me confidence.

Then I fell in love with a blind girl because she was the one who valued my inner world. We often went to different places.

Tales from childhood: Friendship.

Sophie noticed that there are people who said bad words about Timothy. But they even didn't know him! These people just judged him by his appearance.

Because of this, the young man became more and more afraid of people on the street. After all, as soon as Timothy went into a public place, there was always someone who expressed his own opinion about his disfigured face.

"Grandma, why do people act like this around Timothy?" Sophie asked.

"Probably no one explained to them that others can't despise a person for his appearance." grandmother answered.

Timothy himself from all became shy and quiet during day. The disfigured man began to go outside only during at night.

Timothy visited some night places, everyone got used to him there.

Also, Raymond noticed that his wife's brother was very cheerful. He realized that the conversations with Timothy needed to be carried out again.

"Yes, there are different people in the world." Sophie said.

"My uncle is friends with Timothy instead he isn't as many people, he is different. He supports Timothy." Angela said.

"It's good. I think that other people must understand him, too." Sophie said.

"Mrs. Anne and her daughter want to make a surprise for Timothy. I want to help them." Angela said.

Tales from childhood: Timothy and his mood.

“Hi! How are you?” Raymond asked Timothy.

“So, so, I have difficult moments in my life. Not all people can understand me.” Timothy answered.

“I can understand and accept you.” Raymond said.

“Thank you very much! You’re real friend!” Timothy said.

In general, some people noticed that Timothy really behaved in a strange way. He didn’t always understand where he was or didn’t remember what time it was.

Perhaps this was due to a misunderstanding of the surrounding people. Timothy was hard to hear the words about his appearance.

“Need to guide Timothy on the right path in life,” the wise Mrs. Anne thought.

“I hope that Timothy won’t behave like this anymore,” Sophie said.

Raymond’s niece also worried about Timothy’s behavior because she was a very sensitive child.

Tales from childhood: Sophie and her old friends.

“It happens that some of your friends are for from you that are why you stopped communicating.” grandmother said.   

“I understand,” Sophie said.

Indeed, many of Sophie’s classmates have moved on to other schools after elementary grades. Some friends from the yard moved to new houses and apartments.

Now Sophie had new friends, they were somehow different from her old childhood friends.  But at the same time she had one old friend from early childhood. She was a daughter of her mother’s colleague.
